Heretic! Patala is nothing but awesome. Incredibly powerful mages, sacred astral researchers, elephants, it doesn't get much better than that.

I've never delved into Ry'leh, so it looks like I've got a good bit of reading and playtesting to do in the next couple days.

Anyone know?
It would help with my planning a little.

Which is the team composed of grade AA nations? I actually can't guess.

Well, it's hyperbole to some degree, but most the teams are somewhat strong/weak pairs. Bogarus (strong)/Atlantis weak), Mictlan/Abysia, Marignon/Pythium, Patala/C'tis, even Ry'leh/Man (though man is pretty nice too). Ermor and Agartha though... Ermor is almost in a class by itself, and Agartha is arguably the most powerful live LE nation.

It should be noted that Agartha will probably be played by one of the worst Dominion players of all time! Myself

I would hope to start no earlier than late this weekend. I still need time to try and come to grips with crazy LA Pythium, and come up with some kind of decent build for them.

I agree that R'lyeh/Man is pretty nice - but the other alternatives all struck me as worse (R'lyeh/Arco?R'lyeh/Utgard? R'lyeh/Caelum?), and R'lyeh/Midgard is just silly.

For Ermor's partner, I didn't want to give them too much non-death magic, and C'tis was taken.... it's very thematic, in any case. I'm not as impressed by LA Ermor as many people are, and while LA Agartha is one of my favorites, I've never thought they were that powerful. I'm prepared to be shown otherwise by the inestimable foodstamp, however

I think we'll start late this weekend, if that's when people are comfortable. Monday is St. Patty's day, so I'll be wasted, but I can probably still manage to play.
